And.....he......

did it! LOL Matt sat on Santa's lap! I know! Compared to last year..this pic was hilarious. I was kinda hoping to get another pic like that...but no.  This year he loved Santa, sat on his lap and stood there telling him what he wanted for Xmas. So cute.
After that we got our annual family ornament! Another fun tradition. This was last years. And now this one is this years.

Chayce had to stop buy Build a Bear to kinda scope out the new cuddlies. She wants gift cards to that place so she was kinda spotting a few and some new outfits too. She LOVES that place.

And here's a cute of Mattie in the car! LOL Hope you all have a great Tuesday!

BTW a few days ago Lanne did a Screen Share with me! HOLY SMOKES! That was the coolest thing ever! We were talking over the computer..gosh she has an amazing Australian voice and she was showing me how to  do textures and actions on photos. The girl is SO TALENTED! But seriously, just so cool. And then I got control of her mouse so I could play on her screen too! Just awesome fun and our kids loved hearing her and watching her work!

I have never spoken to Lanne before, but I do read her blog and she seems like such a GREAT person and VERY talented photographer & artist! SO glad that you two have become friends. The screen share thing sounds FUN! LOVE these photos!! It looks like the kids had a GREAT time with Santa! Ü Kendall was the only one of mine willing to sit on his lap and she insisted I be IN the picture so I couldn't take any of her while she was rattling off her list to him! ;-) We may have to make another trip over there so I can take some! LOVE that family ornament! So cool. The kids and I always pick out ornaments each year that represent what we are into. So fun to look at all the different ones over the years!

Forgot to say, we got your Christmas card today. THANK YOU! LOVE that photo! You have to tell me what action or steps you took to get the toning of it. AWESOME!!!

The kids sounded so cute! I am pleased I could use it to show you stuff (it is fun!) Next time I will try and do it slower... I think I go to fast! :) Muah! Happy Holidays to the munchkins! LOVE the ornament.

Jenn,
I stumbled across your site about a month ago and after reading the first couple of entries, I began clicking through the older posts until I had read the rest...every single one. ;) I am an avid scrapbooker (though I haven't gotten into digital because it just seems so complicated for a girl like me who feels like she just has basic computer skills) and a newlywed with a husband who is into photography and LOVES his Cannon (and am trying to learn a few things myself.) No cute kiddies to photograph yet, but someday. :) Better to get the skills first, right? jk Anyway, you are a *wonderful* photographer of everyday moments!!! I love so many of the photographs you use on your pages. I am curious what lens you use for most of your shots? You seem to be able to capture great shots no matter what the light...which is one of my challenges right now, especially in lower light. Thanks for the inspiration!!
